And so I walk, into the searing light which banishes all darkness, surrendering my face and form to atoms of dust, seeking the true darkness of peace,the cool shadows of eternity and the unknown fate of nothingness

Yes, that was the inspiration for Evilseed, at least according to the info on the 10 Best DVD. But we were not there when the idea was originally created, so for all we know the guy who came up with it could have been high at the time.

I never saw any such implications in Evilseed; he seemed more the time honored force of nature rebellion against man's dominion and abuse of the natural world. It's a classic theme that worked well here.

Thats how I saw the ep as well. No matter how advanced in technology you are nature will win. And it's interesting as magic doesn't work, neither does technology. The only thing that stops Evilseed is snow which is natural anyway. So Evilseed is there to show you that nature will always be more stronger than anything man made.

I have been honing my movie knowledge while I have been away and watching a lot. Best Picture winners left to watch: NONE. Films left to watch in Empire's 500 greatest films list: ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN

I can see where ya coming from.... but I don't think it's the case in this instance.... and if they were trying to make kids aware of the threats of drugs etc....back in the day would they have been so subliminal about it?

He-Man would have popped his head out at the end and let you know the morals behind the story

"A Friend in Need" was clearly about drugs, and inherent dangers..even down to the moral.

"The Eternia Flower" also - Though they replaced drugs with flowers...Until the moral segment that is...Teela's delivery of the moral was pretty powerful and wonderful voice acting by Linda Gary:

"Do you know someone who uses drugs the way Jonno used that flower? Drugs can be dangerous because of the effect they can have on the mind and body. The price one pays for the feeling a drug gives can be a loss of control, hurting someone you love or something much worse. People often get sick playing with drugs. Some even die. Never take drugs from other people, even if a close friend says it's all right, check with someone who really loves you. See you next time."

I'm pretty sure this gets addressed in one of the upcoming documentaries...
